Not had anything for a long time but got a ticket for last home game, anybody else have one or any advice? I noticed plenty of spaces and just put it down to smaller crowd mid week.
Help appreciated.

Ignore all letters all the way to a county court claim and you will have a ccj, not so bad if you don't do credit but a b*stard if you want something like a mortgage. Be careful, I went to court last year over a flipped £1 ticket and ended up having to pay the parasites £200, the judge was 100 % on their side.

This is true...and I was always one to say 'ignore'
There is now Case Law (can't recall who the two parties were) that is used to take these matters forward and it seems the only question is "Are the issuing company accredited?"
Stage 1: Letter letting you know of the overstay (or as in the Heath Hospital) the wrong bay (staff or public) with the offer of a reduced 'penalty' (not fine) for the contravention £70 down to £40 if it is paid within a certain timescale
Stage 2: Letter arrives demanding full fee of £70 for 'late payment'
Spot on. It's all changed and the days of ignoring these letters are gone, best to avoid giving these tossers the opportunity as they will go all the way. It's a multi million pound money spinner and since the supreme court gave them a green light they are hitting hard, beware.
Stage 3: Letter arrives from County Court demanding immediate resolution or the opportunity to pay them a visit at a time of their convenience (not ours) with the addition of a Court Fee; a total to be paid of £145
That's £110 more than the initial offer and, in the case of a good friend of mine, a cost of £290 per hour for parking in the wrong Bay at the Heath Hospital (a totally innocent occurrence rather than deliberate like the OP's) and ignoring the subsequent demands from Parking Eye
Take the above as you will but it is changing and if they are 'accredited, they will now follow up; it's now big business and profitable for both premises and enforcing agency!

I am still being chased for overstaying at the heath while my 11 year old daughter was having chemotherapy. Consultants have written a letter to inform I had the right to be there but parking eye refuse to scrap ticket. Been going to mp and he is having no joy either.

If I remember right it asked you to type in your registration if you have been there longer than 3 hours.
